Get connected with a local real-estate specialist who understands The Bluffs (Minot, ND) and the surrounding Minot golf market.
The Bluffs is the name given to a long-running, incrementally platted series of residential subdivision additions developed along the southeast boundary of Beowulf Golf Club (formerly Minot Country Club) since the club relocated there following the 2011 Souris River flood. Beginning around 2016, the golf course's operating entity (Golf Minot Inc.) began working with the City of Minot and adjacent lot owners to sell surplus course-boundary land, allowing some bordering homeowners to enlarge their lots -- a genuine, club-initiated residential relationship distinct from ordinary incidental proximity. Since then, additional phases (at least an 8th, 11th, 16th, and 18th addition confirmed by name in city planning records) have continued platting the surrounding area, with more recent additions marketed on general convenience -- proximity to the club, to south Minot amenities, and to a nearby elementary school -- rather than exclusively on golf-course frontage. Build-ready lots in the 8th Addition were reported starting around $49,900; this is a lot price, not a finished-home price, and no confirmed home-price range or HOA structure was found for the community as a whole.
Golf Access
Does buying a home here include club membership?
No evidence was found that purchasing a home or lot in The Bluffs includes, requires, or grants any priority access to Beowulf Golf Club membership. Golf access here runs entirely through the club's own separate, fee-based, non-equity membership program (see the Beowulf Golf Club anchor record), open to the wider Minot-area public and not gated to Bluffs residents specifically.
Living in The Bluffs (Minot, ND)
The Bluffs spans multiple separately platted additions rather than a single unified development, reflecting roughly a decade of incremental growth along the golf course's boundary. Early additions involved direct land transactions between the golf course and adjacent lot owners; later additions (e.g. the 8th Addition, developed by a local contractor with build-ready lots from about $49,900) read as ordinary suburban infill marketed partly, but not exclusively, on the club's presence nearby.
Location & Surrounding Area
The Bluffs sits along Valley Bluffs Drive SE and adjoining streets on the southeast side of Minot, immediately bordering Beowulf Golf Club, and near John Hoeven Elementary School.

What Buyers Should Verify
- Confirm whether any formal HOA or covenant structure governs any of The Bluffs' additions -- none was found in this research pass.
- Confirm current finished-home price ranges directly with a local Minot real estate agent -- only a lot-price figure for one addition was found.
- Confirm which specific Bluffs additions have direct golf-course-boundary lots versus general-proximity lots -- this research could not map every addition individually.
Notable
- At least eight named subdivision additions ('The Bluffs' 8th, 11th, 16th, and 18th, among others) have been platted with the City of Minot since 2016.
- Some early-addition lots exist because the golf course itself sold adjacent surplus boundary land directly to bordering homeowners, beginning around 2016.
- Build-ready lots in the 8th Addition were reported starting around $49,900 -- a lot price, not a finished-home price.
